Good morning!
Today's card is inspired by the December card challenge prompt but with a twist.
I wanted to feature some houses but this time pare things right back to create a super flat card for posting.
Well, masking paper to the rescue!
Stamps: Lil' Inker Designs - All The Christmas You'll Ever Need (r)
Dies: Hello Bluebird - Glacier Peaks, PTI - Seeing Stars (r), Simon Says Stamp - Village
Other: Distress Inks
You can get a lot of depth and interest by using your dies to create a silhouette for masking and then go to town with some distress inks and white gouache paint to create your very own wintry night sky.
After leaving the background to dry, there's nothing quite like peeling back the masking paper to reveal what's underneath.
So satisfying!
I simply finished off this card by stamping a lovely large sentiment from Lil' Inker Designs that would perfectly fill that white space.
Nothing else was needed so I left it at that.
Happy crafting, until next time!
